Investor Update

Since our last update Bill has worked closely with the team at Bridgemedica to evaluate and update the design for cost, performance and manufacturing considerations. This has included mechanical and electrical system updates and has resulted in a truly robust, high quality design solution. Comprehensive design documentation for release to our tooling and parts vendors is being completed this month while we simultaneously fabricate and evaluate a set of final prototypes that capture our changes and revisions. This parallel effort is helping to streamline our development and commercialization timeline.  '

In a parallel effort, our optics supplier Lumenflow has tooled the final silicone lens parts, which are a critical element to the system performance, and has tested and verified that we are at or exceeding our lighting performance.

Packaging samples have been submitted by several vendors and are being evaluated by the team with very favorable price quotes. The final packaging design decision is pending the results of shipping survivability testing.

Finally, Bridgemedica has transitioned all documentation into their ISO13485 certified quality management system. Bridgemedica will now be creating and managing all QMS documentation as we move closer to production and FDA registration.'

Last week Heidi, Bill and Craig met with David Casimir to review our US Patent in prosecution.  Bill shared some final design changes, and David agreed our patent filing should incorporate additional design elements.  So, David will soon be filing a Continuation-In-Part (“CIP”) patent action to add what we are tentatively calling the MezLink.  David estimates this CIP will improve our odds of obtaining a patent by 25%.  Also, David encouraged the MezLight team to use the labeling “patent pending” on the various products and features of the MezLight system under the claims of the patent application.

Heidi and David will also follow-up to assure MezLight the benefit of trademarks for product names, attributes, and branding elements.  So, in addition to “patent pending” you will see TM labeling names like MezLight, MezPost, MezPower, MezLink, MezKit, and phrases like “get lit”.
